Chapter 268 The Prince of Manchester United, Lukaku's incredible clearance
Wembley Stadium suddenly became noisy. Chu Feng ran to the sidelines with Mahrez in his arms and waved to the Manchester United fans in the stands, instantly attracting even louder cheers.
If I say that Manchester City is the most offensive team in today's football, no one should object.
The nearly 30 minutes of suppression of Manchester United just now is the best proof.
The two accurate passing engines on the left and right, combined with the three small and agile players in the frontcourt, put tremendous pressure on Manchester United's defense.
If it weren't for Kant's large-scale sweeping capabilities, the city gate would have been lost again.
Manchester United fans also had a fire burning in their hearts, and now they finally had the chance to vent it, their voices echoing throughout the stadium.
"Boss, letting Chu target Zinchenko is, in Chu's hometown, a waste of talent. Mahrez is more than enough to suppress him."
Faria danced with excitement, "We have to force the situation on the left side. I don't think Guardiola will dare to let Kyle Walker defend Chu alone later."
Just as Chu Feng had concluded before, Kyle Walker is good at defending speed forwards, but will be at a loss when faced with the opponent's continuous changes in rhythm.
It’s just that most of the players in the Premier League are “rough guys”.
Of course, this is only compared with the La Liga. The fundamental reason is that the intensity is too high.
Sure enough, a new round of discussions began next door. Arteta had played as a defensive midfielder before and knew very well how to strengthen defense: "Zinchenko can no longer lose his position easily, let him defend in the backcourt in a 'pit' style.
This way Laporte can mark Lukaku, and Otamendi and Kyle Walker can help defend Chu. ”
As the leader of Argentina's defense, Otamendi is the one who directs the entire defense, and he has gradually corrected his bad habits under Guardiola.
The two of them, one using speed and the other using technology, can definitely freeze Chu Feng completely.
“Well, let’s do this for now, but we can’t let go of the attack on the right side, and force Chu to participate in defense!”
Guardiola nodded, his eyes full of fear.
Chu Feng suddenly looked towards the Manchester City coaching bench and smiled brightly. He had always been able to sense Guardiola's vague hostility.
Although the two belong to different camps, they have to stop at the right time! Therefore, Chu Feng has been holding back his energy to beat Manchester City violently, to gain an absolute advantage in the contest with his father-in-law, and to determine his future position in the family in advance.
Thinking of this, he waved towards a certain stand.
"come on!"
A few strands of Maria's hair were wet with sweat, and she spread her hands into a trumpet shape and shouted loudly!
Her relationship with Chu Feng had long been exposed by The Sun. As Guardiola's daughter, she was more or less a public figure.
So after discussing it, the two decided not to hide it and just admit it to the outside world openly.
Although it will attract a lot of criticism, there will definitely be no problem with Guardiola and Mourinho around.
The two old men, one for their daughter and the other for their disciple, made a phone call after a long absence to discuss how to reduce public opinion.
"One more!" Valentina's face turned red, making her look very cute.
After the die-hard Manchester United fans nearby discovered the identities of the two, they immediately waved and called the salesperson: "Please give the two beautiful ladies two glasses of beer. Oh, Coke, no, juice!"
You know, Chu Feng can now be said to be the prince of Manchester United, and his status is no less than that of Giggs from the Class of 92.
When the Red Devil's building was about to collapse, a hero was urgently needed to step forward.
Chu Feng, who grew up in Manchester United and became famous at a young age, brought a group of seniors and brothers to send Manchester United back to the throne, and then helped Manchester United win the Champions League.
His blood seems to be naturally compatible with Manchester United.
Manchester United fans are looking forward to Chu Feng dominating the world and leading Manchester United to create unprecedented glory.
If we could have stayed together all the way and fought for Manchester United all our lives, the story would have been as perfect as Dragon Quest.
Maybe a new statue will be erected outside Old Trafford.
Manchester United fans even hope that one day in the future, they can hold their children's hands and point to a new stand at Old Trafford.
The head coach with graying hair but a vigorous spirit said: "I watched Chu play football back then. He was a man with no limits. He kicked the Liverpool players back to the beach and drove the Manchester City brats to Maine Road. It's a pity that you missed the best time!"
Today, Chu Feng once again withstood the pressure and helped Manchester United equalize the score.
With the idea of loving the house and loving the dog, let alone two cups of juice, even if it is two hundred cups of juice, Manchester United fans have to pool their money to buy it!
Maria and Valentina did not refuse. They took the juice with a smile and said thank you sweetly.
It almost made Manchester United fans' bones break.
Guardiola followed Chu Feng's gaze, and the whole person seemed to have suffered 10,000 critical hits. He gritted his teeth and roared, "Let Kyle Walker go for me, increase the intensity, and it doesn't matter if he fouls. If he is passed by Chu Feng again, he will be prepared to stay in the youth team for another half a month!"
In the Manchester City fan area in the next stand, Marius felt the depressing atmosphere and even took off his baseball cap to wait for someone to bring him a drink.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, no one recognized him. He could only look at Valentina with envy, thinking that he would sit in the Manchester United family area next time even if he was beaten to death.
On the green field.
When Chu Feng and his teammates returned to the half, the Manchester City players next to him had slightly complicated expressions. In the previous Manchester derbies, Manchester United's momentum immediately rose after Chu Feng scored.
"Did you hear what the boss said? Pay attention!" David Silva reminded loudly.
De Bruyne took a deep breath.
He was one of the first people in the entire Premier League to notice Chu Feng.
But he didn't expect Chu Feng to grow so fast.
He didn't feel that kind of pressure in the early stage of last season, but in today's dozens of minutes of game, he actually felt timid.
Afraid that he would not be able to defend in time if he made a deep run forward.
"The boss said before the game that we should use offense to suppress offense, but from the scene, it was us who were suppressed."
De Bruyne rubbed his nose worriedly.
Beep!!! The shrill whistle sounded and the game started again.
The basic strategies of both teams have not changed. Manchester United still gives up the ball and waits for Manchester City to reach the midfield before pressing.
And they also began to increase the intensity of the confrontation.
Mourinho once told them: "Football has never been a gentleman's sport. I hope you can become hooligans!"
The white-haired Mourinho conducted the team passionately. He never thought that he was weaker than others.
Instead, he kept the mentality that he was the "Special one".
Guardiola also gave instructions frantically, wishing he had a handle in his hand so he could control the movements of the players on the field.
While the two head coaches were battling each other, the clashes between the players on the field became more intense.
The ball was transferred to Gundogan's feet.
The German made a timely diagonal pass to the front of the penalty area. Aguero gritted his teeth and held on to Maguire, then transferred the ball to B Silva on the right.
Ashley Young seized the opportunity and slid down to the ground!
"Wow, he knocked down both the player and the ball. Professor Yang is still so fierce!"
“And it’s shoveled very cleanly!”
While B Silva was hugging his legs and wailing, Ashley Young quickly dribbled the ball forward.
Chu Feng turned his head to look at Kyle Walker, then sprinted forward along the sideline and shouted to Ashley Young: "Pass it directly!"
Kyle Walker's heart trembled.
Ashley Young didn't waste any more time after hearing this, but before he could kick the long pass, he saw De Bruyne rushing towards him.
Without saying a word, he just pulled and dragged!
Beep!!!
"Ding Ding paid the price of a yellow card for blocking Manchester United's counterattack."
"You know, he seldom does this."
Zhan Jun couldn't help but sigh.
Zhang Lu also echoed: "It seems that he has been pushed to the limit. Mourinho put Xiaochu on the left side, which is really a very clever arrangement!"
It is indeed just as Zhang Lu said, Manchester City is afraid of making a move and it is difficult to organize a stronger offensive.
But Manchester United has the same problem.
The next game.
Mahrez was trampled by a double team, Sterling was brought down by a flying tackle, and Lukaku pushed Otamendi down during a scramble. When the referee blew the whistle for the first half, everyone in the stadium breathed a sigh of relief.
During that last period, the rhythm of offense and defense was so fast that the ball could be transferred several times within a few seconds. It can be said that the confrontation covered every inch of the grass! Chu Feng's legs were also a little weak.
He not only has to participate in the offense, but also assist his teammates in defense, which is equivalent to running back and forth. "Hurry up and go back to rest, the second half will definitely be more intense."
Chu Feng took the kettle handed to him by Faria, rinsed his mouth and took a small sip.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Walking through the dim player tunnel back to the locker room, Mourinho was already waiting at the door, high-fiving each player and giving a few words of praise.
"We played well in the first half and there was nothing we could do about that goal."
Mourinho only started to review the game after all the players returned.
There are probably not many people in European football today who can make that kind of pass.
"It's just that..." Mourinho changed the subject, "Pay attention to the opposite direction of Manchester City's attack. Both Kevin and David are good at long-distance transfers."
"And Harry, you have to remember that you are a defensive back, try to reduce the distance between you and the goalkeeper as much as possible."
Maguire is indeed very strong in frontal defense, but he also has serious problems with turning speed, while Aguero is very good at bursting in the first few steps.
The situation in the dressing room next door was not much different.
Guardiola drew dense arrows on the tactical board, and his voice seemed to have a hypnotic power, making Manchester City players unconsciously forget that they were equalized in the first half.
"Manchester United have nothing to fear. Tactically we have the upper hand, and even more so in terms of players."
"In the second half we still followed the previous tactics, but Gundogan had to increase the frequency of forward runs, and his teammates would run to both sides to create space for you."
Guardiola knows it is difficult to open up the situation through the wings.
Soon, players from both sides returned to the field and Wembley Stadium became noisy again.
Although there were only two goals in the first half, the scene was exciting.
There is an old saying: "It is better to be evenly matched!"
In this situation, no one can predict the final winner, and a sense of unknown hangs over the court.
After the start of the second half, Manchester United kicked off and moved to the wing.
High-altitude bombing Yes, Manchester United's tactics are simple and easy to understand, which is to use the height advantage to attack hard.
This is also Mourinho's characteristic.
The tactical thinking is clear, focusing on the team's overall defense and threatening the opponent through efficient offense.
As for Guardiola?
He pursues the ultimate technical and tactical perfection, tearing through the opponent's defense through precise passing and movement.
“These two can be said to be the pinnacle of tactics in today’s football.”
"Mahrez cuts inside and passes the ball into the penalty area. This is a new skill he has developed recently, which is especially suitable for a 'giant formation' like Manchester United!"
Kyle Walker's eyes never shifted, and he immediately followed Chu Feng after noticing him move, but the scene that followed was unacceptable to him.
Mahrez's long pass was closer to the left, which prevented Otamendi from scoring in the first place.
And it was this point in time that gave Chu Feng the opportunity!
He accurately judged where the football would land, and his calf muscles tensed and bulged to exert force, and his whole body flew up like a spring!
"I forgot this kid is a header expert!"
Kyle Walker could only interfere obliquely.
After all, his height is only 1.78cm. Even if he wears height-increasing shoes, he can't catch up with Chu Feng! How can there be such a striker in the world who can run, dribble and jump ? Kyle Walker was so depressed.
"The acceleration distance is relatively short, and the force is definitely not great. Just judge the direction correctly!" Edson stared at Chu Feng in the air, jumping slightly on the spot.
"Give it and it will come!"
A strange voice in Northeastern dialect sounded, and Chu Feng changed his mind about heading the ball because Lukaku on the right was in a better position!
Since Laporte often cleans up Zinchenko's mess, he will subconsciously pay attention to the situation on the left side, and his attention will inevitably be distracted.
So there was a situation where Lukaku was left unguarded.
Bang! With a crisp sound, the football bounced towards Lukaku!
“No strength?!”
"Backward header, what the hell is this?"
A new term popped up in Zhan Jun’s mind.
Lukaku looked at the pie falling from the sky, his dark face full of smiles.
He was going to be a hero for Manchester United! He had even heard the roar of applause, with all the Manchester United fans singing his name.
Push forward with your right foot! Bang!!! Ding!!! The football hit the post and bounced back into the penalty area. Chu Feng quickly followed up and tried to make up a shot, but Otamendi kicked the ball out of the sideline.
"Romelu, you are really..." You should know that Chu Feng rarely gets angry on weekdays, but he was so angry about Lukaku's behavior that he exploded.
Ederson was still in the middle of the goal and had even given up trying to save the ball.
But Lukaku's right-foot shot hit the post. Rather than shooting, it was more like an incredible high-quality clearance! Ederson shook his head vigorously and said in disbelief: "This guy is even more outrageous than Sterling!"
"Nonsense, I can score this goal with my eyes closed!" Sterling retorted unhappily.
Listening to the Manchester City players' ridicule, Lukaku scratched his head in embarrassment and remained silent for a long time, not knowing what to do.
"That's enough." Chu Feng punched Lukaku helplessly. "If you waste an opportunity, just create another one. If you don't want to endure the boss's wrath after the game, you'd better get yourself excited."
"Keep lobbing the ball!"
After saying that, he high-fived his teammates vigorously, trying to dispel the impact of Manchester United's missed opportunity as much as possible.
It’s just that Manchester City’s adjustment was very timely.
Strengthen the intensity of the front midfield's pressing, don't give you the opportunity to kick long passes, and eliminate the threat outside the penalty area.
Same with Manchester United.
Therefore, both teams were very cautious, and no one wanted to concede another goal to the other side.
So why is there no name game in the final?
This is the reason. If you can pass the ball safely, you will never pass the threatening ball. This way it is difficult to create scoring opportunities.
With the offensive and defensive transitions between us, the game time is passing quickly.
Before we knew it, it was the 70th minute, and both teams were ready to make substitutions, in order to achieve their goal in one fell swoop! (End of this chapter)
